C14-490 is an ionizable cationic lipid (pKa = 5.94).1 It has been used in the generation of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for the delivery of mRNA in vivo.C14-490-containing LNPs accumulate primarily in the fetal mouse liver and, to a lesser extent, in the lungs, intestine, and brain after vitelline vein injection on gestational day 16 (E16).1 CD45-functionalized LNPs containing C14-490 and encapsulating mRNA encoding GFP transfect Jurkat cells, which constitutively express the CD45 receptor (CD45R).C14-490-containing CD45-functionalized LNPs encapsulating Cre mRNA mediate genome modulation in bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for at least four months after in utero injection in R26mT/mG mice at E13.5.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
